About the Book

A lifetime on the streams of Michigan's Copper Country, one cast at a time For more than sixty years, Clyde Wainio has waded the streams and rivers of Michigan's Copper Country, chasing Brook Trout, Rainbows / Steelhead, and Northern Pike through every season. In If It Snows, Go Fishing!, he shares a lifetime of fishing adventures-record catches, near-misses, family traditions, and unforgettable encounters with the wild. Rich with humor, local history, and the rhythms of nature, these stories honor the joys of patience, persistence, and respect for the outdoors. Complete with evocative illustrations by Joanna Walitalo, this memoir is a heartfelt tribute to both fishing and the timeless spirit of Michigan's Northwoods. "If you enjoy stream trout fishing, you will enjoy Clyde Wainio's book If It Snows Go Fishing! Wainio has been fishing for trout in the Upper Peninsula's Copper Country for 60 years and the book contains some of his fondest memories from those years. The book also includes some tips that might help make you a better stream trout angler." -- Richard P. Smith, Michigan Outdoor Hall of Fame inductee and author of Understanding Michigan Black Bear, 3rd Ed. "If you love to fish, you will have fun with these stories and agree with many. Even if you don't like fishing, you will learn a lot and still chuckle at some of the adventures this author had on streams across Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The photos and illustrations really put you there." -- Deborah K Frontiera, U.P. Book Review "I recommend If it Snows, Go Fishing: 60 Years of Stream Fishing in the Copper Country for its humor, because of its detailed descriptions of fish and its specific locations of where to find them, and its fishing adventures. Wainio humorously described how many fish he caught with one nightcrawler. Many of the fish found in the waters of the U.P. were mentioned in the book and Wainio mentions a multitude of locations in the Copper Country to experience fishing success. Wainio proudly shared his heartfelt memoir with phenomenal illustrations of many of his fishing adventures." -- Sharon Brunner, author of Lake Superior in the Moonlight: Yooper Tales From Modern History Press

About the Author :
Clyde Wainio has spent more than sixty years fishing the rivers and streams of Michigan's Copper Country. From childhood days on the Pilgrim River with a handmade pole to decades of adventures across the Keweenaw, he has built a lifetime of stories about trout, steelhead, and the people who shared the water with him. His passion for fishing is matched only by his love for family traditions and the beauty of the Northwoods. If It Snows, Go Fishing! is his first book, a tribute to the streams that shaped his life and the lessons they continue to teach. Joanna Walitalo, of Pelkie, Michigan, is an artist, illustrator, and educator whose work blends scientific accuracy with natural beauty. She earned a B.S. in Biology and Environmental Studies from Central Michigan University and later a Master's degree in Forest Science at Michigan Technological University, where she also pursued doctoral studies. Raised in Oil City, she was inspired by her mother, an art teacher, and later mentors in science and art. Joanna is best known for her distinctive wood-burning artwork, created on reclaimed wood, which celebrates wildlife and wild places. She lives in Michigan's Upper Peninsula with her husband and son.
